Errors

Could not create link

Generic client fallback when download grant fails without a recognizable error payload.

Could not create link

The download landing page could not mint a link and did not receive a known error code/message — so it shows this generic fallback.

Why this happens

Network glitch, HTML error page from a proxy, malformed JSON, or an unmapped server failure. When the server returns Could not create download link (or bandwidth/captcha/password codes), the client should show those instead.

Diagnose and fix

1. Open DevTools → Network on the grant request — read status and body.

2. Fix the underlying issue (DB mint, captcha, bandwidth, maintenance, proxy 502).

3. Ensure the API returns JSON with error / code the download client understands.

4. Retry after the server is healthy; do not treat this line as a separate product rule.
